There are 20 shades available in this range, so you'll definitely be able to find at least one shade suitable for you! I have American woman, Slow ride and Under My thumb
The packaging is very simple, you get to see the shade from the clear strip in the middle part of the tube, the colour you see is pretty much what you will get on your lips, as it provides 100% coverage no matter what your lip colour is. The wand is quite solid with a slightly pointed tip, however because of the formula I do think it offers too much product and I have to wipe off a lot of excess to get a better application.
Formula wise, it is very liquidy, almost as light as water therefore it is very runny so you have to be very careful when applying along your lip line, I often find myself have to go back to it and spend about 3 mins to perfect my lip line, so if you are in a rush, you might want to choose something else or simply use a lipliner to help this situation. It is very long wearing, when I say long wearing I mean it will still be there perfectly after a light meal! However it will pick up any dry patch you might have on your lips and make them look more visible and add some 3D effect to them, hahaha... I also find it can be quite drying after 5-6 hours, so it's not the best option if you suffer from dry sensitive lips a lot like me, but I guess that's what most liquid lipstick have in common, apart form my favourite Chanel Rouge Allure Ink which I can wear for days without feeling uncomfortable.
So here I swatches these shades under indoor natural lighting so you can see the true colour.
Slow Ride is a rusty sienna shade
American Woman is a warm mauvy pink
Under My Thumb is a deep dark berry red

My favourite is definitely Under My Thumb as you may see I have put 2 photos of this shade on here. Overall I think it is a good buy despite the fact it is a bit tricky to use without lipliner and can be drying after 6 hours, but that still beats most other liquid lipsticks on the market and with a reasonable £23 price tag, I cannot fault it. I mean, yes I love Chanel Rouge Allure Ink more, but that is £28 each, so I would definitely recommend this range if you want a good quality high end liquid lipstick without a hefty price tag .
